Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of drying moisture bearing chlorine gas.
  • Chlorine gas released from aqueous liquids such as the electrolyte in conventional cells in which chlorine is liberated by the electrolysis of hot brine, is substantially saturated with water vapor at the temperature of the liquid. It is common practice to reduce the temperature of electrolytically produced chlorine gas to a temperature near room temperature, whereby a portion of the moisture contined in the gas is condensed, and then to contact the chlorine gas saturated with moisture at the reduced temperature with strong sulfuric acid which absorbs moisture. The dried gas is then usually further cooled and compressed to liquefy it for storage or shipment.
  • the amount of residual moisture in the dried gas is of critical importance for the success of the liquefaction operation. If the chlorine gas is to be liquefied by means of modern dry compressors without unduly shortening the useful life of the compressors,. the moisture in the gas must be reduced to a lower value. Dew points of the order of 50 C. were obtainable heretofore only by prolonged contact with almost anhydrous sulfuric acid.
  • the usual equipment for drying electrolytic chlorine gas consists of a battery of packed columns or towers in which the chlorine passes upward countercurrent to descending sulfuric acid.
  • the gas is sequentially passed through all towers of the battery, and the concentration of the sulfuric acid recirculated in the individual towers increases in the sequence of gas passage.
  • Three towers operating at three levels of sulfuric acid concentration are normally employed.
  • the concentration of the recirculated acid changes only very slowly during operation of each tower. It is customary, therefore, to withdraw about one twentieth of the acid reaching the tower bottom and to feed the withdrawn acid to the tower operating at the next lower concentration of sulfuric acid, while nineteen twentieths of the acid are returned to the tower top.
  • Conventional drying tower batteries consist of one tower in which the chlorine gas is cooled by direct counter-current contact with a stream of cold water, and of three countercurrent absorption towers operated at respective sulfuric acid concentrations of 94, 70, and 50 percent.
  • the acid discharged from the last tower is too dilute to warrant transportation to a remote place of consumption, and is yet too concentrated to be conveniently discarded.
  • the known equilibrium line A extends on this chart from a point A at temperature 0 C. and 0 percent sulfuric acid in a continuous arc to a minimum point A at 88.0 C. and 35.25 percent sulfuric acid by weight at which the solid phase is the dekahydrate of sulfuric acid.
  • a second portion of the equilibrium line A extends thence in an upwardly arched curve through a maximum A at 57.65 percent sulfuric acid and -40.0 C., a corresponding to the tetrahydrate, to another minimum A at 73.08 percent sulfuric acid and C., corresponding to the dihydrate.
  • the next portion of the equilibrium line passes in an upwardly convex are through a maximum point A at 84.48 percent sulfuric acid and 8.81 C., for the monohydrate of sulfuric acid, to a minimum point A at 93.4 percent and -40 C., and thence extends to the melting point A of pure sulfuric acid at C.
  • a solid chlorine hydrate does not form when chlorine is contacted with liquid sulfuric acid the temperature and concentration of which is represented on the chart of FIG. 1 by an area above the line A and spaced toward higher sulfuric acid concentrations from a line B which extends in a continuous are from a point B at 9.8 C. at 0 percent sulfuric acid through a point B at 0 C. and approximately 15.5 percentsulfuric acid to a point B on the equilibrium line A which is close to the value for a sulfuric acid concentration of 42 percent.
  • the equilibrium temperature between solid and liquid sulfuric acid hydrates is substantially -61 C., and chlorine gas may be dried by absorption of water in approximately 42 percent sulfuric acid at apprecipitation of a chlorine hydrate nor of other solids.
  • chlorine as employed in this specification and the appended claims is not strictly limited to a gas consisting uniquely of the element chlorine, but the gas may include those minor impurities which normally accompany crude electrolytic chlorine gas, for example minor amounts of oxygen, and certain halogenated organic compounds which are formed from carbon anodes or from rubber cell linings in the electrolytic manufacture of chlorine.
  • Typical halogenated organic compounds found in crude electrolytic chlorine gas include hexachloroethane, sym metrical tetra chloroacetone, pentaand hexachloroacetone, hexachlorobenzene, 2,3,5,6 tetrachloroquinone, 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride.
  • chlorinated impurities form resinous and gummy substances which foul and dry compressors preferably employed in the liquefaction of chlorine gas.
  • the moisture content of the dried chlorine is a function of the equilibrium partial pressure of water vapors in the chlorine phase in contact with the sulfuric acid phase. This partial pressure is sharply lower with lower sulfuric acid temperatures.
  • FIG. 2 shows a novel, absorption tower employed for carrying out the afore-described method, the tower being shown in elevational section;
  • FIG. 3 is a flow sheet indicating typical operational parameters for the apparatus of FIG. 2 when employed for the absorption of moisture from electrolytic chlorine by means of sulfuric acid.
  • FIG. 2 shows a tower of the invention the external walls of which are formed by a cylindrical shell 1, and which is axially closed by a transverse bottom 2 and a' cover 3.
  • the cavity within the shell 1 is subdivided into nine compartments I to IX in ascending order by solid horizontal walls 4.
  • Short cylindrical tubes are supported on each horizontal wall 4 coaxially with the shell 1.
  • Each tube 5 passes through the supporting wall 4 and thus has a lower orifice 6 in one compartment and an upper orifice 7 in the superposed next compartment.
  • a foraminous plate 8 which is horizontally arranged below the level of the upper orifice 7 of the tube 5 in the corresponding compartment.
  • the plate 8 is of annular shape. It has an axial opening which is sealed by a bell shaped cap 9.
  • the cap spacedly surrounds the upper terminal portion of the tube 5 and its orifice 7.
  • the cap 9 is of solid material and impervious to gas or liquid. It communicates with the lower portion of the corresponding compartment by an annular orifice 10.
  • the effective flow section of orifice 10 is approximately the same as that of the tube 5, and approximately equal to the combined flow sections of the perforations 11 in the plate 8.
  • the shell 1 has openings provided with flanged pipe nipples 12, two openings with corresponding nipples being provided in each compartment and arranged in the upper portion of the compartments having a plate 8.
  • the nipples 12 are aligned in two vertical rows diametrically opposite each other.
  • one of the openings in the shell 1 with the corresponding nipple constitutes a feed conduit, whereas the other opening and nipple 12 constitute a discharge conduit which also serves as an overflow weir and determines the maximum height liquid may reach in the upper compartment portion.
  • the discharge conduits of compartments II, III, IV, VII, VIII, and IX are connected with the respective feed conduits of the subjacent compartments, I, II, III, VI, VIII, and VII, by conduits 13 connecting the upper portions of two superimposed compartments.
  • Each connecting conduit has an inverted siphon portion 14 which, when filled with liquid, forms a gas tight seal in the connecting conduit.
  • a spigot 14' is provided in each siphon portion 14.
  • the conduit 13 connecting the compartments VII and VIII is provided with a jacket 15 through which a refrigerant may be circulated to cool a liquid passing through the conduit.
  • the same connecting conduit is also provided with a side tube 16 connected to a supply line 18 by a valve 17 so that a liquid material may be admitted to compartment VII of the tower, or a gas may be admitted to compartment VIII at a rate controlled by the valve 17.
  • the lowermost compartment Iinc -ludes the saucer of the tower. It does not have a foraminous plate. It has two openings in its shell portion. One opening 19 is connected to the superimposed compartment II by a connecting conduit 13, and is located near the bottom of the compartment I. It also communicates with a discharge pipe 20 leading downward from the tower.
  • the other opening 21 on the shell of the compartment I is of substantially greater diameter than the opening 19 and located well above the level of the latter opening.
  • a large gas pipe 22 is flanged to the opening 21.
  • Compartments II, III, and IV are connectedto each other by connecting conduits 13 arranged a lternatingly between nipples in opposite rows.
  • the feed conduit of the compartment IV is connected to a water line 23.
  • Compartments II, III, IV are each equipped with a toraminous plate 8 carrying a bell shaped cap 9.
  • Compartment V has no plate 8, and its shell openings 24 and 25 are capped.
  • Compartments VI, VII, VIII, and IX are each divided into two portions by a plate 8 with a cap 9, and are connected to each other by con- 'necting conduits 13 in the manner described above.
  • Compartment VI is equipped with a discharge pipe 26 comminicating with its discharge conduit.
  • Compartment IX in addition to its shell openings has a wide central opening 28 in the cover 3 which closes the top of compartment IX.
  • a tube 29 communicating with the opening 28 leads away from the tower.
  • the shell opening of the compartment IX which constitutes a feed conduit is connected to an acid supply line 30.
  • a cooling coil 27 is placed on the plate 8 in compartment IX in such a manner as not to obstruct the perforations 11 in the plate. The coil is connected to a source of refrigerant fluid in a conventional manner, not further illustrated.
  • Crude hot moisture bearing chlorine gas is fed from an electrolytic cell to the tower through the gas pipe 22 at compartment I while cold water enters compartment IV through the water line 23.
  • Water initially flows downward through the perforations 11 in the plate 8 of compartment IV until the lower portion of the compartment is filled and the water begins to overflow through the connecting conduit 13 to compartment III.
  • the upper orifice 7 of the tube 5 is at ahigher level than the overflow at the discharge conduit of compartment IV so that the interior of tube 5 remains dry.
  • compartment II is partially filled with water in a similar manner. close to the bottom 2 in compartment I, no substantial body of liquid accumulates in the saucer at any time.
  • the chlorine gas is cooled to a temperature about equal to the original water temperature. Since the gas entered the tower saturated with water at a much higher temperature, a portion of the moisture in the chlorine gas is condensed and mixes with the cooling Water. The cooling water also is saturated with chlorine at the temperature at which the water leaves the tower through the discharge pipe 20. Since the final water temperature is approximately as high as the original temperature of the chlorine gas, the chlorine losses with the cooling water are small, and at least a portion of the chlorine may be recovered from the water and returned to the process in'a known manner.
  • the cooled chlorine gas saturated with water at the initial temperature of the cooling water passes through the otherwise empty compartment V where the minute amount of water droplets, if any, entrained by the chlorine stream is deposited.
  • the chlorine stream then sequentially passes through the compartments VI, VII, VIII, and IX substantially in the same manner as described above in connection with compartments II, III, and IV.
  • Concentrated sulfuric acid is fed to the upper portion of compartment IX at a rate sufiicient to maintain in compartment IX a sulfuric acid concentration which at the prevailing temperature reduces the moisture content of the chlorine gas discharged through the opening 28 to that desired in the end product.
  • concentration of the acid in compartment IX may be raised by increasing the flow of concentrated sulfuric acid.
  • the temperature of the acid may be controlled by the cooling coil 27.
  • compartment IX For each volume of concentrated acid fed to compartment IX, a body of acid having a lower concentration and a volume related to that of the added concentrated acid by the inverse ratio of the concentrations, that is, a larger volume, is discharged toward the compartment VIII.
  • the acid flowing from the compartment IX into the connecting conduit leading to compartment VIII passes in a thin layer through the nipple 12 which connects the compartment IX with the conduit 13.
  • a relatively low rate of liquid flow is inherent in my invention which does not require recirculation of acid, but in which the acid Since the discharge pipe 20 is located flows in a continuous path from the top toward the bottom of the tower, and thence out of the system.
  • the acid leaving compartment IX through a nipple 12 thus flows relatively slowly through the nipple.
  • the body of acid in the compartment proper is held in a state of turbulence by the chlorine gas passing upwardly through it.
  • the liquid in the solid-walled nipple does not receive gas from below, and yields whatever residual gas may have been carried along. Inspection of the borosilicate glass siphons 14 in a tower of my invention reveals a homogeneous liquid free from bubbles of entrained gas.
  • Another contributing factor is the arrangement of a single riser pipe 5 for the chlorine gas in each compartment having a lower orifice 6 superposed on the imperforate area defined thereunder by a cap 9. Any acid droplets released by the surface of the acid above the foraminous plate 8 must undergo at least one change of direction before entering the orifice 6. The abrupt change in the direction of gas at the upper orifice 7 of each tube further causes entrained liquid to fall back into the lower compartment.
  • the acid in compartment VIII is at a lower concentration than that in compartment IX and is reinforced by the overflow from that compartment, while at the same time a body of acid diluted by absorbed water is discharged to compartment VII.
  • the temperature at that compartment may be influenced by the cooling jacket on conduit 13 connecting compartments VIII and VII. Additional acid, water, or both may also be added to compartment VII through the valve 17.
  • the need for such additions may readily be gaged from I the appearance of the acid in the connecting conduits 13 at least some of which are preferably made of borosilicate glass, and from a test on the liquid overflowing through the conduits of which a sample is readily taken through the spigot 14. If the acid temperature is too low, either greenish crystals of chlorine hydrate or white crystals of sulfuric acid are clearly observed in the connecting conduits 13 before they become too numerous to seriously interfere with the operation of the tower. Corrective measures are readily taken, and may include the addition of water, acid, or both to any one of the compartments, and the throttling of refrigerant circulation through the jacket 15 and the coil 27.
  • connecting conduit 13 While for the sake of clarity only one connecting conduit 13 has been shown to be equipped with a cooling jacket 15 and a spigot 14', and only compartment IX has been shown to be equipped with a cooling coil, all connecting conduits may be equipped with a jacket and a spigot, and cooling coils may be arranged in any compartment where this may appear to be desirable.
  • a tower in which each compartment is equipped with cooling and sampling facilities will be preferred where operating conditions vary widely.
  • towers of the invention consist of only four superimposed compartments having a combined height of approximately eight feet, and a drying capacity equal to or better than that of a battery of four conventional towers of equal diameter, each about thirty feet high. While the known towers each require a heavy circulating pump, the tower of the invention is operated entirely by gravity flow.
  • Each of the four compartments of the tower is identical with one of the compartments lI-IV or VIIX illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • the tower may thus be assembled from standardized compartment units with a saucer unit and a cover unit in a manner well known in itself.
  • the several units may be connected by bell-and-spigot joints or in any other manner suitable for the material of construction employed.
  • Chlorine gas saturated with 146 grams of water per cubic meter is introduced from an electrolytic cell into the saucer unit, and rises therefrom to the lowermost compartment in which it is washed with water at 15 C.
  • a single passage of the gas through a water layer on the plate 8 replenished at a rate of 165-2000 liters per metric ton of chlorine is sufficient to reduce the water content of the gas to 12.8 grams per cubic meter.
  • the pre-dried and cooled chlorine gas then enters the first drying compartment through a conduit formed by the tube and the annular orifice 10 of the lastmentioned compartment.
  • aqueous sulfuric acid the concentration of which is held at twenty percent by weight by means of stronger acid overflowing from the second drying compartment.
  • the temperature of the acid in the first drying compartment is 12 C., and is maintained by a cooling coil 27.
  • the acid is discharged to waste or to other uses by overflow through the discharge conduit of the first drying compartment at a rate determined by the acid additions from the second drying compartment and the amount of water absorbed from the chlorine gas.
  • the second drying compartment receives sulfuric acid at 70 percent and C. from the third compartment at a rate sufficient to maintain an acid concentration of 33 percent in the second compartment.
  • the temperature of the latter compartment is held at 10 C. by a cooling coil.
  • the chlorine passed from the second to the third compartment holds only 1.37 grams of water per cubic meter.
  • the third and highest drying compartment is fed sulfuric acid of 96 percent concentration precooled to 20 C. at a rate of 1.1 kilograms of acid for each metric ton of chlorine discharged from the tower cover.
  • the temperature of the third compartment is held at -20 C. and the overflow is suitably set to maintain an acid concentration of 70 percent.
  • the chlorine gas discharged from the opening in the tower cover holds less than 0.03 gram of water per cubic meter and has a dew point lower than -50 C.
  • the second and third drying compartments'of the tower operate under conditions of temperature heretofore considered impractical in this art. Yet, no chlorine hydrate nor other solids are precipitated from the acid which is refrigerated to temperaturesvery much lower than the 9.8 C. which were considered the lower limit of absorp- ItlOIl tower temperature.
  • the tower compartments of the invention may be superposed in any desired manner to provide towers of desired performance properties.
  • the tower represented in the flow sheet of FIG. 3 can be equipped with an additional compartment operated at 50 C. with 73 percent sulfuric acid to produce chlorine gas bearing even less water than is contained in the product of the illustrative example of FIG. 3.
  • Other modifications of the method to produce different results are readily derived from the above teachings.
  • the tower or column of the invention is also employed to advantage in other processes.
  • the gas pressure drop within the column is relatively small because of the large effective flow section of all gas conduits.
  • the visual observation and convenient sampling of the liquid descending countercurrent to the gas from compartment to compartment in the tower of my invention permit control of many processes in a manner not available without complex instrumentation in known absorption columns. This is of particular advantage where the tower is employed as a reactor for gas-liquid reactions.
  • the towers of the invention are greatly superior to packed towers where the liquid phase undergoes relatively minor changes in its reaction with the gas phase, as in the drying of chlorine with aqueous sulfuric acid.
  • the flow rate of the liquid phase may be reduced to the minimum consistent with the changes in the liquid, and may readily be stopped altogether if so desired, by shut-off valves arranged in the external connecting conduits 13 in a manher too well known to require illustration.
  • a tower equipped with valves 17 which give controlled access to the several compartments may be operated without loss of efficiency at production rates which are only a minor fraction of the design capacity of the tower.
  • a skilled operator will be able to achieve all but the very lowest production rates without resorting to external controls, by merely varying the amount of liquid fed to the highest compartment and by suitably changing the temperature of the liquid in the several compartments.
  • the tower of the invention may be operated entirely without pumps or other continuously moving machine elements. Leakage of process liquid is readily avoided. Maintenance cost is substantially reduced.
  • Chemical processes for which superposed compartment units of the tower of the invention are eminently suitable include the production of chlorine dioxide from an aqueous solution of sodium chlorate, sulfuric acid, and sulfur dioxide gas in a reaction well known in itself.
  • the entire chlorine content of the sodium chlorate is readily recovered as chlorine dioxide when sodium chlorate solution and sulfuric acid are fed to the top of a tower having as few as four compartments, and sulfur dioxide gas is introduced from the bottom.
  • the efficiency of this reaction can be greatly increased by close control of the liquid composition in each compartment which is readily achieved by means of the external connecting conduits.
